After the success of the original Mego 2-XL in the early 80s, the toy company Tiger decided to bring it back in early 90s. The Tiger 2-XL used compact cassettes split into four mono programs, rather than the 8-track tapes of the original. It mostly consisted of educational games and "Choose Your Own Adventure" stories.
This was one of the two tapes that featured Superman. In this one, chaos has enveloped Metropolis. However, even Superman cannot track down all of the different groups causing chaos all at once. As such, the story splits into two paths. One path leads to Trip Masters, a former gang leader linked to a bus crash. It is revealed that he has made a deal with the demon Blaze. The other path leads to Mr Mxyzptlk, the imp from the fifth dimension, who proposes a game of hide-and-seek with Superman.
As the story progresses, other villains appear. We see Sleaze, a strange lizard-like character who feeds on suffering, and is enjoying the chaos above. We also meet Alfonse E. Crispin, who blames Superman for the death of his wife.
In his usual style, Mr Mxyzptlk briefly hijacks the program. He threatens to erase 2-XL's memory banks and force you to start the tape over if you fail to answer his trivia questions.
